The Massey College Alumni Association promotes connections between Massey College Alumni  and the Fellowship of the College.  To this end, it provides both formal and informal social opportunities at the College and offsite for all members of the Massey community.


Why An Alumni Site?

We felt it was time.  After all, everyone else has a Website.  Some dogs have Websites.  It was simply our turn.

As well, we wish to keep the scattered alumni of Massey College up-to-date about approaching events, interesting news, opportunities, Brenda Didyk's favourite recipes, and other random bits of information that we feel are intriguing or useful.  Current Junior Fellows may also find relevant tidbits here (the lexicon and the comic are aimed more or less in their direction).

We Massey alumni are spread out over the globe, but the Web can bring us together in a lyrical flood of zeroes and ones, and we can, electronically, be a Community of sorts.  We thus encourage you to contact us with ideas re. the site or the alumni (Toronto-based or otherwise) as a whole.  We're all in this together, people.

If you have an urgent issue you wish to discuss directly with a member of the Alumni Association or if you have a comment about this site in particular, please get in touch with the president of the Toronto chapter, Kari Maaren, whose contact information is mentioned ad nauseam all over the alum site.
